Info zu Johannes Brahms: Clarinet Sonatas Op. 120, 4 Ernste Gesänge, Op. 121

Julian Bliss and James Baillieu present a recording Johannes Brahms’ Clarinet sonatas, Op. 120 and an arrangement of his 4 Ernste Gesänge, Op.121 arranged by Bliss. These late works were inspired by the great clarinettist Richard Mühlfeld, principal clarinet of the Meiningen Court Orchestra, without whom we would not have had this clarinet repertoire.

Julian Bliss is one of the world’s finest clarinetists, excelling as a concerto soloist, chamber musician, jazz artist, masterclass leader and tireless musical explorer. He has inspired a generation of young players as creator of his Conn-Selmer range of affordable clarinets, and introduced a substantial new audience to his instrument. Julian started playing the clarinet aged four, going on to study at the University of Indiana and in Germany under Sabine Meyer, turning professional aged twelve.

Described by The Daily Telegraph as ‘in a class of his own’ James Baillieu is one of the leading song and chamber music pianists of his generation. He has given solo and chamber recitals throughout the world and collaborates with a wide range of world-class singers and instrumentalists. As a soloist, he has appeared with the Ulster Orchestra, English Chamber Orchestra, and the Wiener Kammersymphonie.

Julian Bliss
ist einer der besten Klarinettisten der Welt und mit Solokonzerten genauso erfolgreich wie als Kammermusiker, im Jazz oder als Leiter von Meisterkursen. Unermüdlich erweitert er sein musikalisches Spektrum und gewinnt neue Zuhörerkreise für sein Instrument. Als Gastdozent begeistert er Generationen von Klarinettenschülern. Er war maßgeblich an der Entwicklung der sogenannten Leblanc Bliss Klarinetten, bezahlbarer guter Instrumente für Fortgeschrittene, beteiligt.

Der in Großbritannien geborene Julian Bliss begann bereits im Alter von vier Jahren Klarinette zu spielen. Er studierte in den USA an der University of Indiana und in Deutschland bei Sabine Meyer.

Die stilistische Vielfalt und Qualität seiner Musik sind Ausdruck seiner breitgefächerten künstlerischen Fähigkeiten. Rezitale und Kammermusikprojekte führten ihn zu den führenden Festivals und Konzertsälen der Welt, u. a. zum Menuhin Festival Gstaad, den Festspielen Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, nach Verbier, in die Wigmore Hall London und das Lincoln Center New York.

Als Solist spielt er Konzerte mit Sao Paolo Symphony, dem Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra of Paris, BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, Auckland Philharmonia und London Philharmonic Orchestra.

2012 gründete er das Julian Bliss Septett. Die Programme dieser Formation sind inspiriert vom King of Swing, Benny Goodman, sowie von kubanischer und brasilianischer Musik und sorgen für ausverkaufte Häuser in den USA, im Ronnie Scott’s London und im Concertgebouw Amsterdam.

Seine kürzlich erschienenen Einspielungen fanden weltweite Beachtung und wurden von der Fachpresse enthusiastisch gefeiert. Besonders hoch gelobt wurde seine Aufnahme von Mozart und Nielsen Klarinettenkonzerten mit der Royal Northern Sinfonia. Auf seiner zuletzt erschienenen Kammermusik CD spielt er Schubert und Schumann zusammen mit der Sopranistin Ailish Tynan und dem Pianisten Christopher Glynn. Mit dem amerikanischen Pianisten Bradley Moore veröffentlichte er eine Rezital CD mit Werken russischer und französischer Komponisten.

James has given solo and chamber recitals throughout Europe and further afield. He collaborates with a wide range of singers and instrumentalists including Lawrence Power, Jack Liebeck, the Elias and Heath Quartets, Ian Bostridge, Dame Kiri te Kanawa, Annette Dasch, Pumeza Matshikiza, Jamie Barton, Markus Werba and Catherine Wyn Rogers.

Festivals include Festpillene i Bergen, Spitalfields, Aldeburgh, Cheltenham, Bath, City of London, Aix-en-Provence, Verbier, St Magnus, Derry, Norfolk & Norwich and Brighton Festivals. As a soloist, he has appeared with the Ulster Orchestra, the English Chamber Orchestra and the Wiener Kammersymphonie.

An innovative programmer, James has already curated a number of projects, including series for the Brighton Festival, Wigmore Hall, BBC Radio 3, Bath International Festival and Perth Concert Hall.

In the 2015/16 season James presented his own 11-concert series at the Wigmore Hall “Introducing James Baillieu” with Adam Walker, Jonathan McGovern, Ailish Tynan, Tara Erraught, Henk Neven, Iestyn Davies, Allan Clayton and Mark Padmore amongst others. This series was shortlisted for the Royal Philharmonic Society’s Chamber Music and Song Award for an outstanding contribution to the performance of chamber music and song in the UK during 2016. He also took part in a European tour with Benjamin Appl as part of the ECHO Rising Stars series.

This season’s engagements include appearances with Allan Clayton, Louise Alder, Adam Walker, Benjamin Appl, Lise Davidsen, Tara Erraught, Amy Harman and Markus Werba at venues including Wigmore Hall, Oxford Lieder, Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Bozar Brussels, Louvre Paris, Pierre Boulez Saal, Hong Kong City Hall, Peace Center South Carolina and the Vancouver Playhouse.

James enjoys working with young musicians and is a Professor at the Royal Academy of Music, a coach for the Jette Parker Young Artist Programme at the Royal Opera House, a course leader for the Samling Foundation, and is head of the Song Programme at the Atelier Lyrique of the Verbier Festival Academy.

Born in South Africa, James studied at the University of Cape Town and the Royal Academy of Music in London with Michael Dussek, Malcolm Martineau and Kathryn Stott. In 2007 he graduated with a Dip.RAM and received the Christian Carpenter Award in recognition of his outstanding achievements.
